You're right about the current problem Thanh. But I disagree with you on the solution - while what you propose will make us hide the problem temporarily, the real fix in my eyes is making the build work without rt.equinox.binaries if run with -Dnative.
I would not be able to work on it immediately but it definetely is smth that would better be worked on as the binaries git repos are huge and a pain to clone already.
